Meet Roo

Well we finally broke down and found a friend for Riker. Her name is Rissa. I actually have some sort of mental block on that so I call her Reeka. Whatever. She doesn't seem to care! Her former owners said she answer to Rissa Roo so sometimes we just call her Roo. She came to live with us last Sunday. She was very,very thin. I heard a story that she was depressed because she was "acting" mother for a litter of pups and the pups were sold. Poor girl! She is doing great and has gained some weight. She is super lovey and a really good girl. Once we got past the first few days where Riker tried to hump her all the time we were fine. Roo is spayed and we have decided to neuter Riker as well. Joe thinks its an insult but I vote for neuter. She runs out in the yard and comes back immediately when you call her. She is such a good dog! What is great about that is now Riker follows her so instead of dashing off to the neighbors he actually stays in the yard. A miracle!
As you can see Riker has been given an area on the floor and Reeka has made the sofa her home. It is a bad habit I will break soon. Hopefully.

Happy New Year!

Well it's time to get back to the crazy schedule that is the Miller life. Kyle is starting a new Scout group so that should take away some of the pain. Karate is done unless we decide to continue at the actual school in Fenton. Pierce only has 3 more basketball games and then tournaments and he is finished.


So what's next......Possibly dance for Miranda? Baseball for Pierce? Soccer for Kyle? I am sure we can find something to keep the chaos intact.

New Years Eve was a quiet one. Jim and Kelly came over and we kinda just hung out. The boys were up north so Miranda was glad to have Dylan to play with. Riker also ended his year off right thanks to Kelly. If you get a chance check out Joe's new site lowermichiganpics.blogspot.com
